20100015305 | Turkey seasonings, toppings and bits, and methods of making same - Food toppings and seasonings made from turkey meat, including turkey “bacon” bits and methods for their manufacture are provided. While turkey has long been an attractive alternative to red meat in nearly every food sector, there is presently no suitable alternative to the traditional pork-based bacon bits or the imitation bacon bits made from vegetable protein. Consumption of any type of red meat, including pork-based products such as genuine bacon bits, raises significant health concerns given the connection between red meat consumption and an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease, cancer, and other significant threats to one's health.
